As oil and gas resources become harder to find, producers are forced to operate in environments of ever increasing severity and risk. Often operating in High Temperature High Pressure (HTHP) applications, the consequences of a catastrophic failure to personnel, the environment and infrastructure are immense.

To help manage the increasing and unprecedented risk, the concepts of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) and Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) were created and applied. One such SIS type, is the High Integrity Pressure Protection System (HIPPS). A HIPPS is an independently instrumented protective device, and acts as the last line of defence for protecting downstream operations from over pressurization.

Typically certified to SIL 3, a HIPPS gives producers the most dependable pressure protection device available in the market today.
